I expect it to fail because it's utter dogshit. Since the feed is algorithmic, you see a bunch of crap you aren't following rather than the people you are following. Who wants that?

Maybe it's to get people to scroll more, so they see more adverts. IDK. Facebook has a lot of behavioral data to use in such a design. But Zuckerberg might be arrogant enough to disregard it.
